More Rain Here In January Than In Four Months 4.70 Inches Rainfall In 13 Days Btreams Still High In Section. Total May Equal 13 Inches In December. More rain fell in the Shelby sec lion during six of the first 13 days of January than during four con secutive months in 1931. according to the rainfall record kept at the Shelby postoffice. Through Wednesday the January rainfall totalled 4.70 inches, which was over an inch more than the combined rainfall for August, Sep iember, October and November ir, 1931. The total rainfall for the four months was 3.63 inches, the major portion of it, 2.10 inches, com ing in August. The heaviest rainfall this month was 1.52 inches on last Friday, the 8th. The rainfall for the other days of the month was recorded as fol lows: Jan. 1—.32 of an inch; Jan. 6—67 of an inch; Jan. 7—.96 of an inch: Jan. 9—.57 of an inch; Jan. 13—.46 of an inch. As a result of continued rains this! week streams are still high in this section, and in some cases axe out of their banks flooding bottom land. The heaviest month's rainfall during 1931 was a little over 12 inches in December and if the rains continue the January rainfall may come near equalling it. No New Ku Klux Organized Here Efforts To Revive Old Klan. Or Similar Body, Not Made Here Yet. So far as could be learned here i today no attempts have as yet been j made to reorganize the old Ku Kluxj Klan, or any similar organization based upon the klan idea. From New York this week came the word that three different at tempts are being made throughout; the country to reorganize the old klan or two other organizations bas ed upon the K. K. K. principles. A l:lan chapter has flourished to a certain extent in Shelby at three different intervals—the original clan, then an organization near 10 years ago in which were several members of the original klan, and in more recent years a continuation of the second chapter. As far as is publicly known the last chaptei lmally quit meeting because of de creasing interest. The three new or- i ganizations, which are being at-1 tempted, are listed as follows: the' Clan, the White Band, Inc., and thej Esskaye, the latter two welcomin’i lews and Catholics. Dr. H. W l Evans, imperial wizard of the Klan ; was reported making efforts to re vive that organization. The other two named were: William Joseph Simmons, one time imperial wizard of the klan, who seeks to promote the White Band. Inc., as an anti dote to communism. E. Y. Clarke, former promoter for the klan and later kleagie, who opened a mem bership drive today for the Esskaye. The societies debut in the nation's life will begin with an “American problems conference ’ in Cleveland on February 1. Some of the officials of the la* t klan group here say they have heard nothing of the new organiza tion and appear to show little in terest. Shelby's biggest klan dem onstration, since reconstruction days was about six or seven years ago when the white-robed of two o: three adjoining counties united with | Shelby klansmen for a big public i parade in Shelby, Gardner To Speak Before Lambs Club Raleigh, Jan. 15.—Governor Gard ner has accepted an invitation to attend the annual dinner of the Lambs Club in New York City.

Million Dollars In Dividends, And Earnings Paid In Shelby In 1931 ! Ketired Jurist 1 his is the most recent picture of Justice Olivet Wendell Holmes, grand old man of American juris prudence. who has resigned from; the I'nitcd States Supreme Court , at the great age of ninety.

Break Combination On Safe. An amateurish attempt to rob a safe in the Shelby Peed company store and warehouse, just west of the Southern Railway tracks, Wed nesday night proved a failure. An investigation by officers yes terday morning revealed that the j safe had been dragged from the of-; fice of the store to the floor of the I storage section. There the would-be j yeggs hammered off the combine- j tion, but were unable to get in thei safe and apparently gave up the at-! tempt after a struggle. Entrance in to the building was made by rais ing a rear window and crawling in. It is the first attempted robbery of the type here in some weeks, but articles discarded near the feed store, presumably by the yeggs, in-' dicated that a store somewhere in the section may have been entered. There were no clues of value to aid officers in the task of identifying those who attempted to crack the safe. Annual Bank Meet In Kings Mountain — Kings Mountain, Jan. 15.—Stock- j holders of the First National bank' of Kings Mountain held their 31st annual meeting this week. Directors i and officers were elected during the day. The bank was reported to be in a sound condition. Banks, Building And Loan Groups, And In dustry Show Good Year. Quarter Million More To Be Paid By March. Bank And B. & L. Resources Total $7,700,000. Over 3£ Million On Deposit In Banks. A survey shows that over a million dollars was paid in Shelby during the past year in building and loan maturities, industrial dividends and bank dividends and interest of cer tificates and savings accounts, with fully a quarter of a million dollars to be paid in building and loan maturities and corporate dividends between now and March 1st. Farmers Credit Group Here Has Excellent Year Save on Purchasing Fertiliser With Cash And Have Surplus Left. An independent credit corpora tion, organized in Shelby this spring to help farmers finance the fertiliz ation of their 1931 crops, had a suc cessful year. This was shown at the annual meeting of the Shelby Agri cultural Credit Corporation held here this week. The corporation was organized the first of April and during the year made 39 loans covering $33, 750. These loans enabled Cleveland farmers to pay cash with their fer tilizer and thus save around 20 per cent. All the loans were to be paid by December 1, and according to the report all were paid. The Federal credit bank, which financed the credit group, spoke highly of this feature considering the hardships of the year. After all expenses for the year were paid the corporation found it had a surplus of $371.27 with which to start another year. A sim ilar plan will be followed this year and application will be filed with Federal Intermediate Credit bank at Columbia for necessary finances. Directors elected at the meeting were J. L. Lackey, Wm. Lineberger, Forrest Eskridge, Tom Cornwell and C. M. Spangler, officers named were Tom Cornwell, president; J. I. Lackey, vice president, and John P. Mull, secretary-treasurer. Cleveland Roads In Fair Condition Now Rain* Have Retarded Work Some what. To Occupy New Camp About March 1. Cleveland county highways and roads are in fair condition, if not better, despite the heavy rains of December and January, according to W. A. Broadway, highway engi neer for this territory. During the summer and early fall dry weather handicapped the road workers considerably, but the maj or portion of the roads in Cleve land were maintained in good con dition. About the time the first ot December rains speeded up the work a regular rainy spell set in and offered a new handicap. Yet road officials gradually adjusting the new system have carried on in such a manner as to be praised bv county citizens. Work is speeding up on the new state convict camp, just north of highway 20 near the county fair grounds, but it isn’t likely that the camp can be occupied long before the first of March, State Must Preserve Credit At All Cost, Governor Gardner Says Officials Approve His Slash In Budget To Maintain North Carolina Finances. (Special to Tlie Star * Raleigh, Jan. 15.—“Whatever is necessary to protect the credit of the State—no matter what it in volves—will be done. Everything X say here today is subject to this amendment: I would resort to the full power of this office to do any thing and everything that is neces sary to prevent this State from de faulting in its debt obligations. And I take this occasion to say that no such calamity shall befall North Carolina. The character and credit of this state shall preserved at all hazards," Governor O. Max Gardner includ ed these statements in a talk made to the heads of the State’s depart ments Thursday, and again in a radio talk last night, to show the of ficials and the people of the State that the cut of 70 per cent, made by his as director of the budget and approved and endorsed yesterday by the full advisory budget commission, was necessary and required. "After we have accomplishea all these economies.” Governor Gard ner said, after pointing the way to further economy, "and after we have ascertained the maximum of revenue to be collected, it will then be time enough to give thought to the question of whether the preser vation of the State's credit demands the calling of a special session of the general assembly.” for the pur pose of balancing the budget Also Governor Gardner made tt plain that the State could not con tinue to fail to balance its budget, to run “in the red." by his state ICONTINUKU O.N PAUB lgij.j With only a Tew corporations a* yet holding their annual meetings | It is revealed in the survey that since Jan. let *125,000 has been paid In j dividends. Several of the largest in dustrial corporations are yet to hold ; their annual meetings which are ■ scheduled around the first to the j middle of March when it is expect ed that fully *125,000 more will be j distributed to shareholders. Strong Resources. The combined resources of the two banks and the three building and ! loan associations is seven million, | seven hundred thousand dollars, the | banks showing over three and a half million dollars on deposit, accord ing to their last published statement as of Jan. 1st. Not only are the banks but the building and loan as sociations In strong financial condi tion. maintaining the utmost faith and confidence of their patrons. During the year Just closed, the two banks paid in July and January dividends totalling *31.500. while during the year over *100,000 was paid by the banks for interest on savings and time deposits. This was distributed through the year and added greatly to the income of the thrifty. B. Sc L. Maturities. Building and loan associations which hold a strong plaoe in the hearts ol the people paid out in cash and cancelled papers in series ma turing during the year the enormous sum $755,700 This wiU be added to when two building and loan associa tions mature series in February and one in March, the total distributing amounting to $141,700 within the next 45 days. A conservative estimate of the total amount paid in corporate divi dends, bank dividends, bank interest on savings and deposits and matur ed building and loan stock for the past twelve months therefore runs in excess of a million dollars. As pointed out above* fully a half million dollars will be paid out by building and loans and industrial enterprises within the next 4j days when annual meetings are held by the industrial enterprises and the building and loan associations ma ture heavy stock series. Each build ing and loan has the money on hand to pay out the necessary cash included in the $141,700 maturing the bulk of the series being1 in ma tured stock, while the remainder in cancelled mortgages. Mills More Hopeful. Business men feel there is a turn for the better. Textile men say they are getting more inquiries for goods and indications are that the milk will all be running on full time. Several of the textile plants are now running day and night, but have had to accept orders at reduc ed, prices and adjust their costs to conditions. Inventory time Is over with the merchants and they are hopeful of a better year. They feel that prices are more steady and that there will be no further occasion for stock marks because of a declining mar ket Mr*.

Vote Reported Likely. Shelby aldermen have not as yet reached any decision about the salt of the municipal light plant to the Southern Public Utilities for a mill ion and one hundred thousand dol lars. Reports about, the city late Wed nesday had it that a special meet ing of the council was planned for Wednesday night to make a formal election. Thursday the Wednesday's report had gained headway to the extent that it was reported that the meeting had been held and a deris ion made to leave the matter to a vote of the citizens. An official check at the city hall revealed that the reports were without founda tion. No meeting was held Wednes day night and no date for the S I* tf, decision has been set. Opinion seems to be increasing about the city that the offer will be referred to the citizens at a special election. This opinion, however, is not based upon any statement, of ficial or unofficial, by the aldermen or mayor, for they are sawing wood, studying the situation and saying nothing. If either of the five offic ials has publicly expressed his in tentions it is not generally known The belief that the aldermen will permit tax-payers to answer the offer themselves is based, according to those of the belief, upon the reas oning that it may be the most sat isfactory manner of settling the city-wide controversy. Some favor the sale and others do not. If, it is pointed out, the aldermen refuse to call an election and permit a vote, those favoring the sale will say that 'they have not been given a chance to express their opinion and show their strength. If it Is put to a Tote, it is added, the opponents of the sale can readily and plainly register their opposition by defeating it. Thus both sides, it is argued, would have the satisfaction of knowing how the majority of tax-payers and light patrons feel about it. The pre vailing opinion appears to be that a majority would vote "no" on sell ing, but that, of course, cannot be definitely known until put to the test. Neither is it sure that the mat ter will go to a vote. The silence of the city officials as they study the offer, rates, etc., makes one gues,* about as good as another until there is formal action.
